PREFACE 

CONCERNING  the  state  of  the  little  theatre  today,  two 
mutually  exclusive  but  arresting  viewpoints  prevail  in  the 
critical  diocese.  One  holds  that  having  abundantly  leavened 
the  barren  loaf  of  the  legitimate  stage,  it  has  by  that  same 
token  outlived  its  pristine  fruitfulness.  The  other  contends 
that  the  little  theatre  will,  and  must,  continue  to  flourish 
cheek  by  jowl  with  the  professional  playhouse,  thus  completing 
the  function  of  both  laboratory  and  supply  base. 

Of  late  the  latter  commissary  role  of  the  little  theatre  has 
been  most  provocative  of  justified  optimism,  as  well  as  highly 
prolific  of  actual  results,  more  or  less  commendable  and  far- 
reaching.  For  quite  a  long  interval,  owing  to  huge  moneyed 
syndicates,  grimly  intrenched,  the  legitimate  theatres  remained 
unmalleable  to  the  repeated  assaults  of  the  new  theatrecraft 
engineered,  for  the  most  part,  by  small  outlawed  groups. 
Despite  this  fact,  perhaps  because  of  it,  these  groups  continue 
to  multiply,  springing  up  unforced  in  remodeled  barns,  canvas- 
roofed  backyards  or  in  transfigured  garages.  While  Mr.  Sam 
Shipman,  for  example,  is  at  present  doling  out  piecework  in 
his  Play  Sweatshop  on  Broadway,  such  clear-eyed  enthusiasts 
as  The  Provincetown  Players  and  The  Wisconsin  Players  are 
conducting  brave  little  try-out  theatres  tending  to  encourage 
the  beginning  playwright  and  the  scene-designer  with  a  new 
idea.  The  enormous  irony  of  the  situation  is  apparent  when 
one  considers  the  strabismic  boycott  once  launched  on  Broadway. 

To  cite  the  classic  example:  Mr.  Belasco,  during  the  first 
season  of  the  Washington  Square  Players,  deigned  to  honor 
the  Bandbox  with  his  Rhadamanthine  presence.  But  he  went 
away  the  more  firmly  rooted  in  an  inexorable  determination  to 
pursue  his  wonted  course  of  nice,  denatured  realism — a  realism 
that  obtrudes  constantly  on  the  wonder  and  attention  of  the 
audience — but  which  somehow  fails  to  "realize."  On  the  other 
side,  a  handful  of  legitimate  producers,  by  attending  the 
little  theatre  performances  with  open  mind,  were  eventually 
won  over  to  the  cult  of  the  new  stagecraft.  Foremost  among 
the  latter  should  be  mentioned  Mr.  Winthrop  Ames  and,  par- 
ticularly, Mr.  Arthur  Hopkins,  whose  productions  of  the  Clair 
Kummer  comedies  and  "Redemption"  and  "The  Jest,"  not- 
withstanding their  faults,  testify  to  the  foreshadowed  risorgi- 
mento  of  the  commercial  theatre.

4  PLAYS   OF  THE   LITTLE   THEATRE 

Supersubtle  pronouncements  of  critics  to  the  contrary,  the  art 
theatre,  as  we  understand  it,  is  no  mere  esthetic  flutter  of  a 
waterfowl  in  a  mirage  supposed  to  be  shimmering  over  the 
present  Sahara  in  commercial  theatredom.  The  point  which 
these  nodding  solons  miss  is  precisely  that  the  art  theatre, 
with  all  needful  pomp  and  circumstances,  has  arrived;  that  it 
has,  squatter-like,  settled  on  the  land  and  that  it  is  destined  far 
to  outstay  the  latest  detective  flim-flam  or  ostermoor  spasm  on 
Broadway. 

How  absurd,  futile  and  trifling,  for  instance,  is  the  cavil 
we  hear  now  and  again  that  the  little  theatre  lacks  definite 
purpose;  that  it  is  drifting  aimlessly  in  accordance  with  the 
whims  of  its  devotees.  Is  it  not  indeed  this  vicissitudinous  drift 
which  has  instilled  vitality  into  the  experiments  of  the  little 
playhouse?  Is  it  not  just  this  inspired  lack  of  formal  purpose 
which  has  permittted  the  directors  and  authors  to  dabble  in 
star-space  and  stake  out  the  hills  of  the  gods?  In  the  case  of 
the  little  theatre,  mastery  over  the  event  would  have  spelled 
irretrievable  ruin  and  the  new  dawn — or  the  milkman — would 
have  overtaken  it  bowling  along  the  wagon-rut  of  colorless 
mediocrity. 

Thank,  then,  the  spirit  of  Andre  Antoine !  For  he  it  was 
who,  while  still  a  groping  pioneer,  undertook  to  set  no  pre- 
tentious- purpose,  but  voiced  only  that  larger  purposiveness 
of  creating  beauty  effortlessly,  with  heart's  joy  and  heart's 
ease.  Thus  the  little  theatre  idea  developed,  growing  out  of 
the  poignant  vision  of  lowly  men  and  women,  devoid  of  tram- 
meling memory  complexes,  which  so  often  spell  the  death  of 
art,  devoid  of  the  faintest  trace  of  sophistry.  Antoine's  little 
coterie  was  informed  by  a  perfervid  love  of  the  theatre.  And 
it  was  this  that  kept  alive  the  intense  prefiguration  of  the 
newly  conceived  art.  Its  burnings Jiope,  rather  than  purpose, 
was,  broadly  speaking,  to  free  the  theatre  from  artificial  fetters 
and  stultifying  tradition.  Convincing  evidence  abounds  that 
the  art  theatre  is  here  to  stay.  In  America,  as  yet,  it  is  grop- 
ing its  way;  in  Europe  there  is,  for  one,  the  example  of  M. 
Stanislavsky,  whose  receipts  at  the  Moscow  Art  Theatre  are 
said  to  be  over  fifty  thousand  dollars  annually. 

In    another   sense,   the    art   theatre   must   always   be    groping 
along  unknown   and   often   forbidden   paths.     The   chip   in   the 


PLAYS   OF   THE    LITTLE   THEATRE  5 

flywheel  of  the  legitimate  producer's  cosmos  is  that,  uncon- 
sciously, he  views  life  as  finished,  static;  whereas  life  is  al- 
v  empirical   and   in   a   state  of  becoming.     The   very   least 

the  art  of  the  theatre  can  do  is  not  to  torture  the  verisimilitude 
of  life.  The  best  it  can  do  is  to  portray  it  faithfully,  and 
imaginatively.  The  dialogue  of  the  majority  of  the  plays  on 
Broadway  is  lifted  without  qualm  or  quibble,  from  the  comic 
weeklies.  Every  manager  has  his  paste-pot  and  scissors  staff. 
Of  course,  there  is  a  remedy  for  this  condition  and  that  is  the 
widespread  publication  of  plays.  In  fact,  all  plays  should  be 
written  for  the  reading  public.  That  trenchant  observation  of 
Dumas  fls  in  his  in-  i  to  Un  Pere  Prodigue  holds  with 

!  truth  today.     Writing  about  the  technic  of  playwriting, 
he   said :  "A  play  should  be   written   as  if  it  were   never   in- 

I  to  be  anything  but  read.    The  production  is  nothing  but 
ing  by  many  people  who  do  not  care  or  know  how  to 
r< 

The    history    of    the    little    theatre    properly    goes    back    to 

1877,  when  Andre  Antoine,  in   association  with   a  mad  young 

1  of    amateurs,    put   a    roof   over    a    tameless   idea    at    37 

I  1        Beaux  A  lasso  has  eloquently  recorded  the 

trials  and   setbacks  of  the  groups  for  him  who  runs  to   read. 

Antoine  w  in  the  employ  of  the  Gas  Company.     His 

c  nions   in   y:i\or   were    of   the    some   stamp;    for   the   most 

■    men    and    women,    chaotic   with    glorious 

and  out  of  this  chaos  sprang  their  dancing  star.     An- 

toine's  passion  for  the  theatre  was,  in  reality,  a  grandc  passion 

of  the  French  variety.     It  began,  no  doubt,  as  a  flirtation,  but 

our    American    brand,    it    had    as    its    object    a    serious 

(  n«*nce.     Antoine   was  far-seeing  because   he   was  at  bot- 

minently    practical.      He    himself    laid    ;isi<le    his    weekly

butts  and  odorous  casks,  the  company  held  its  first  rehearsals. 
A  nriates  would   make   a   house-to-house

"mpiricism  was  the  raison  d'etre  of  the  Theatre 
Libre.  It  Aristotle,  instead  of  Thalasso,  were  its  chronicler, 
he  would,  perhaps,  have  called  it  the  nous  of  the  movement.

At  all  events,  its  purpose  was  the  same  as  avowing  no  pur- 
pose. To  experiment  in  art  implies  drifting  with  the  stars. 
And  it  is  comparatively  safe  to  say  that  the  stars  have  not 
heard  of  Scribe,  Sardou  or  even  William  Archer.  The  out- 
standing fact  is  that  the  Theatre  Libre  did  give  the  momentous 
early  push  to  such  writers  as  George  Ancey,  Pierre  Wolf, 
Eugene  Brieux  and  many  others.  Besides  the  work  of  these, 
it  succeeded  in  breaking  a  furrow  for  the  productions  of  drama- 
tized versions  of  Dostoievsky's  novels  and  the  amorphous,  in- 
tensely gripping,  non-theatre  plays  of  the  Russians,  notably 
Tolstoi. 

From  the  outset  Antoine's  theatre  was  supported  by  volun- 
tary subscriptions.  By  avoiding  the  besetting  temptation  of 
profiteering,  whether  of  the  toady  or  the  financial  sort,  An- 
toine  was  able  to  assist  at  a  new  birth  of  histrionism,  with 
himself  as  accoucheur.  Through  the  dense  underbrush  of 
superficiality  and  sterile  form  he  hacked  a  way  for  what  has 
come  to  be  known  as  Naturalism,  which,  be  it  said,  is  not 
necessarily  Zolaism.  Naturalism  is  only  the  trick  of  capturing 
and  re-creating  life  from  a  naif  examination  of  its  dynamic 
electrons.  Naturalism  is  the  native  poetry  of  the  demiurge, 
who  relegates  such  lesser  metaphysical  matters  as  the  problem 
of  the  cosmos  to  Man.  What  sublimer  study  can  God  have 
than  the  intricate  cross-currents  of  human  personality  and 
social  relationships?  Take,  for  instance,  the  subject  of  mar- 
riages, which  are   unmade  in  Heaven 

In  short,  then,  Antoine  discovered  a  plastic  and  eminently 
satisfying  instrument  for  the  genius  of  Ibsen,  Strindberg,  Haupt- 
mann,  Wedekind,  Schnitzler,  Brieux,  Tolstoi  and  numerous 
other  writers  whose  outlook  on  life  was  once  held  to  be  too 
microcosmic,  too  morbid  and  soul-searching  for  rendering  on 
the  stage.  Lugne  Poe  followed  with  the  first  workshop  theatre, 
and  in  1890  Stanislavsky  built  the  Moscow  Art  Theatre.  Like 
that  of  the  Theatre  Libre,  Stanislavsky's  company  was  enlisted 
from  unspoiled  raw  material,  from  amateurs  who  were  fired 
only  with  a  consuming  ambition  to  pay  their  new-minted  obol 
to  the  bankrupt  theatre.  It  was  here  that  Tchekov's  "The 
Sea-Gull"  was  first  given  a  hearing,  as  well  as  Gorki's  "Sub- 
merged." It  was  here,  too,  that  Gordon  Craig  was  ceded 
unhindered   rein  in  matters  of  mise  en  scene  and   the   artistic 


PLAYS   OF  THE   LITTLE  THEATRE  7 

embodiment  of  his  theory  of  the  theatre  in  general.  The  result 
was,  as  is  well  known,  the  memorable  production  of  Hamlet 
with  black  curtains. 

In  such  manner,  if  the  figure  be  permissible,  was  a  narrow 
gauge  railway  constructed  to  the  frontiers  of  the  future,  intent 
on  reinvigorating  an  art  run  to  seed.  Suffice  it  to  mention 
here,  among  many  others,  Wyspianski's  theatre  at  Cracow,  the 
Convex  Theatre  at  Petrograd  and  J.  T.  Grein's  Independent 
Theatre  in  London,  not  forgetting  the  Stage  Society  which 
introduced  Shaw's  plays  to  the  playgoing  public.  Then  Max 
Reinhardt  built  the  Deutsche*  Theater  in  Berlin  as  well  as  his 
adjoining  kammerspielhatis.  The  art  theatre  likewise  rose  in 
Munich,  and  Strindberg  erected  his  experimental  theatre  at 
Holte. 

Between  1911-12  the  little  theatre  idea  began  to  possess  the 
United  States.  To  what  splendid  proportions  the  movement 
has  grown  is,  perhaps,  best  indicated  by  the  complete  list  of 
little  theatres  to  be  found  in  the  appendix  to  this  bibliography. 

It  is  no  exaggeration  to  declare  that  the  new  art  of  the 
modern  stage,  including  lighting,  color,  stylization  and  syn- 
chronization has  not  only  been  made  possible  but  fervently 
and  consistently  encouraged  by  the  little  theatre  groups.  And 
not  only  would  such  men  as  Gordon  Craig,  Reinhardt,  Fuchs, 
Bakst,  Stanislavsky,  Urban,  Jones,  not  have  been  provided  with 
an  egress  for  their  marked  talents,  but  the  whole  body  of 
dramatic  literature  would  have  been  enormously  beggared  by 
the  non-emergence  in  this  field  of  such  front-rank  writers  as 
Strindberg,  Schnitzler,  Dunsany,  Brighouse  and  Susan  Glaspell. 

The  typical  little  theatre  piece  in  the  past  has  been  at  times 
a  thing  apart,  delicate  and  poetic,  tending  to  the  suffusion  of  a 
rarified  mood;  at  others,  it  has  been  a  slice  of  life,  and  at 
still  others,  less  commendable  perhaps,  it  has  been  a  work 
merely  of  the  theatre  like  the  long  play  we  have  been  accus- 
tomed to  see  on  Broadway.  But  the  little  theatre  at  its  best 
appeals  to  a  peculiarly  responsive  and  intelligent  audience. 
By  virtue  of  its  air  of  intimacy  it  seeks  to  bring  the  actor 
and  auditor  into  rapport.  It  is  especially  true  of  the  little 
theatre  that  the  audience  meets  the  actors  halfway.  Jointly 
they  are  able  to  sustain  such  delicate  moods  as  are  demanded 
by   Maeterlinck's    "Intruder"    or    "The     Blind,"    or     Dowsen's 


8  PLAYS   OF  THE   LITTLE   THEATRE 

"Pierrot  of  the  Minute."  Together  they  form  a  nexus  of 
intelligence  suitable  to  the  presentation  of  the  play  of  biting 
satire  or  the  play  of  ideas,  such  as  the  "Man  of  Destiny"  or 
"How  He  Lied  to  Her  Husband."  The  question  arises,  then, 
what  sort  of  play  shall  the  little  theatre  of  today  and  tomorrow 
specialize  in,  if  at  all.  There  is,  of  course,  the  precious  piece, 
the  typically  art  thing,  so  beloved  of  many  small  theatres; 
there  is  the  play  of  searching  realism  and  there  is  also  the 
typical  commercial  mechanistic  play.  Undoubtedly,  the  little 
theatre  that  is  not  entirely  subsidized  and  has  to  pay  its  own 
bills,  will  steer  something  of  a  middle  course  at  first.  Not  a 
few  adventurers  in  this  field  insist  on  the  utter  impracticability 
of  the  highest  standards. 

But  if  the  little  theatres  are  to  be  honestly  experimental  they 
must  cherish  and  hold  inviolable  the  archetype  of  their  vision. 
They  may  compromise  only  insofar  as  they  are  inescapably 
circumscribed  by  the  limitations  of  their  own  instrument.  No 
further.  In  this,  without  going  deeper  afield,  lies  their  valu- 
able contribution  to  the  modern  theatre.  Let  the;::  essay  the 
bizarre,  if  they  will,  the  precious,  the  naturalistic,  the  so-called 
"inspired  realistic  piny"  as  well  as  the  poetic,  the  mystic  and 
whimsical  children's  play.  Of  such,  indeed,  is  the  stuff  of 
experimentation. 

At  the  Arts  and  Crafts  Theatre  in  Detroit,  Mr.  Sam  Hume 
sandwiched  "advanced"  plays  between  other  matter  of  a  more 
recognizably  obvious  appeal.  Other  small  playhouses  have 
adhered  to  a  somewhat  similar  course,  being  urged  mainly  by 
expediency  and  a  desire  gradually  to  ransom  their  audiences 
to  the  true  art-theatre  pitch.  Forcible  feeding  would  indeed 
have  proved  disastrous.  On  the  whole,  the  productions  of  the 
little  theatres  give  proof  of  the  clear  staking  of  an  outpost  in 
theatredom  beyond  the  lingerie  and  ostermoors  recently  char- 
acteristic of  Broadway.  If  you  like,  they  are  what  literature 
is  to — patent  medicine  advertising  copy.  Of  the  little  the 
that  have  maintained  an  unusually  high  standard,  both  in 
manner  of  setting  and  the  choice  of  plays,  the  Chicago  Art 
Theatre,  the  Provincetown  Players  and  the  Neighborhood 
Playhouse  of  New  York  deserve  honorable  mention.  Curi- 
ously enough,  the  little  art  playhouses  have  discovered  as  well 
as   created   their   own   vehicles.     Even   exteriorly,   in   many   in- 


PLAYS   OF  THE   LITTLE   THEATRE  9 

stances,    they   have    decked    themselves   with   staid    beauty    and 

mplicity.      But    their    "wild    surmises,"    their    hits    in 

experimentation,  stand  out  in  high  relief  against  a  monotonous 

ound,  blazoning  forth  their   right  to  continued  existence. 

The  introduction  of  Dunsany  to  the  public  is  but  one  signifi- 
cant example.  Dunsany  and  the  little  theatre  are  impossible 
to  conceive  apart.  And,  besides  Dunsanv's  poetic  plays,  the 
little  theatre  has  been  responsible  for  the  staging  of  the  one- 
acters  of  such  excellent  writers  as  Schnitzler,  Strin 
Hankin,  Wilfrid  Gibson,  Brighouse  and  Eugene  O'Neil.  The 
function  of  virtuoso  and  patron  of  dramaturgic  art  the  little 
theatre  has  irresistibly  arrogated  to  itself.  In  this  connection, 
note  the  type  of  little  theatre,  certainly  a  dynamic  force  today, 
has  assumed  the  office  of  encouraging  the  embryonic 
playmaker  and  placing  at  his  disposal  a  stage  for  laboratory 
ses.  The  Wisconsin  Players  and  the  Provincetown  Play- 
ers ork  are  foremost  among  the  latter. 

The  Washington  Square  Players,  in  addition  to  making  the 
American  public  familiar  with  foreign  plays  of  unusual  merit, 
were  successful  in  bringing  forward  a  great  many  young 
American  writers.  For  this  service  to  the  stage,  the  Washing- 
jare  Plavers  deserve  to  be  securely  niched  in  our  hearts. 
During  the  first  year  of  its  existence,  this  organization  pro- 
duced thirrv-two  one-act  and  larger  plays,  twenty  of  which 
were  American.  This  proportion  it  managed  to  uphold  to 
the  end  of  its  interesting  career.  Moreover,  three  of  the 
its  native  playwrights  have  achieved  or  are  about  to  achieve 
Broadway  production  and  it  may  be  supposed  that,  like  Joseph 
Urban  and  Robert  Edmond  Jones,  original  stage  artists,  they 
will  mingle  a  salutary  influence  with  the  general  current  of 
commercial   plays. 

A  bibliography  of  the  little  theatre  possesses  a  twofold  value 
at  this  time.  It  cannot  help  but  clarify  the  atmosphere  of 
apparent  abeyance  hovering  over  the  experimental  playhouse. 
The  little  theatre  audiences  are  asking  of  the  little  theatre: 
"Quo  vadis?"  Perhaps  we  have  come  upon  the  parting  of  the 
At  any  rate,  the  present  inflated  state  of  the  commercial 
playhouse  and  the  prospect  of  a  big  season,  perhaps  the  big- 
gest in  the  history  of  the  theatre,  will  leave  its  inevitable  mark 
upon   the   small   playhouses   throughout   the   country.     The   evil 


IO  PLAYS   OF  THE   LITTLE  THEATRE 

influence  will  be  felt  less  in  the  provinces  than  in  New  York. 

A  perusal  of  the  present  bibliography  will  reveal  how  potent 
a  force  the  little  theatre  has  been  in  our  jejune  art  life;  and 
in  what  manner  it  has  shaped  for  itself  a  broader  and  more 
fruitful  course  of  pioneering. 

Regarding  books  about  the  little  theatre,  books  by  critics  and 
even  directors,  it  may  be  well  to  say  at  once  that  many  empty 
and  utterly  absurd  things  have  been  uttered  which  have  sub- 
sequently passed  as  irreproachable  currency.  For  one  thing, 
the  little  theatre  has  fairly  begotten  critics  of  one  sort  or 
another.  If  at  the  outset,  it  was  poor  in  them,  it  finally  man- 
aged to  conscript  them  from  its  own  personnel,  secessionist 
and  otherwise.  And  so  a  great  many  pale  prophecies  and 
patternings  of  governing  principles  have  been  voiced  and  de- 
signed. Take,  for  instance,  the  following  statement  by  Mr. 
Sheldon  Cheney,  who  on  most  occasions  is  illuminating: 

"Unless  we  carry  the  little  theatre  beyond  the  ideals  most 
of  them  stand  for,  unless  we  professionalize  them  while  pre- 
serving their  amateur  spirit,  unless  we  organize  them  efficiently 
for  art  production,  we  shall  be  little  better  off  than  before 
they  came." 

Arbitrarily  to  compel  the  little  theatre  to  goosestep  to  some 
preconceived  rhythmic  idea  is,  on  the  face  of  it,  highly  ridicu- 
lous. Does  not  the  authentic  value  and  contribution  of  the 
small  playhouse  lie  in  the  concept  of  insurgency  with  which 
it  is  intrinsically  informed?  Does  it  not  consist  largely  in  its 
ringing  note  of  individuality?  Not  individuality  a  V  outrance, 
like  the  proposed  Imagist  Theatre,  but  certainly  a  salient  in- 
dividuality definitely  marking  a  point  of  departure. 

Mr.  Cheney  says  elsewhere:  "It  is  not  impossible  that  even 
Shaw  might  be  brought  more  completely  into  the  theatre,  al- 
though as  yet  the  realistic  drama  leans  too  far  toward  life  to 
claim  undisputed  place  in  the  art-theatre  production."  Un- 
doubtedly Mr.  Cheney,  like  Shaw,  thinks  the  Shavian  prefaces 
far  more  dramatic  than  the  plays;  whereas  the  truth  of  the 
matter  is  that  the  plays  are  infinitely  more  dramatic  than  the 
prefaces.  As  to  the  utterly  transhuman  play,  the  comsic  drama 
of  Dunsany,  for  example,  even  Edward  Hale  Bierstadt,  Dun- 
sany's  special  pleader,  finds  it  lacking  in  emotional  warmth, 
nearer  Pegana  than  the  dust  and  sweat  and  poignancy  of  the 


PLAYS    Of   THE    LITTLE    THEATRE  II 

all-too-earthly,  which  is,  in  fact,  the  raw  stuff  of  the  theatre, 
as  of  literature. 

It  is  of  course  inevitable  that  amid  the  warp  and  woof  of 
much  excellent  criticism  which  the  art  theatre  has  stimulated, 
such  arrant  a  priori  twaddle  should  rear  its  hydrahead  now 
and  again.  On  the  contrary,  it  is  not  because  the  professional 
theatre  leans  too  far  toward  life  that  insurgency  is  whole- 
somely welcome ;  but  it  is  to  be  devoutly  wooed  because  the 
shekel-down  drama  of  Broadway  has  no  fresh  contact  or 
remote  relation  with  life  and  its  deeper  motivations;  because, 
in  essence  and  in  fact,  it  is  actuated  by  sordid  purposes  and  a 
false,  illiterate  conception  of  the  art  of  the  theatre  which  is 
directly  responsible  for  the  monstrous  birth  of  unwarrantable 
simianism  in  the  portrayal  of  reality.  For  this  reason  must 
the  little  theatre  break  through  into  the  open.  Its  aim  is  the 
depiction  of  life  unvcneered  and  of  real  psychological  motives, 
as  well  as  the  attainment  of  pure  beauty  flowering  from  the 
achieved  synthetic  ideal,  the  perfect  production. 

The  primary  object  of  the  little  theatre  is  always  wrapped 
up  in  that  of  the  art  theatre.  In  the  past  that  object  has  been 
the  attainment,  as  nearly  as  possible,  of  a  synthesis  growing 
out  of  the  perfect  co-ordination  of  staging,  scene-designing, 
lighting  and  acting  for  the  purpose  of  inducing  a  desired  mood. 
This  ideal  has  been  best  voiced  by  Gordon  Craig  who,  with 
Adolph  Appia,  represents  not  so  much  anointed  fulfiller  of  the 
event,  as  forerunner  and  interpreter;  not  so  much  the  Christ 
as  his  prophet,  John.     Craig  says,  in  analyzing  his  method: 

"I  let  my  scene  grow  out  of  not  merely  the  play,  but  from 
the  broad  sweeps  of  thought  which  the  play  has  conjured  up 
in  me.  We  are  concerned  with  the  heart  of  this  thing,  and  with 
the  loving  and  understanding  it.  Therefore  approach  it  from 
all  sides,  surround  it,  and  do  not  let  yourself  be  attracted  away 
by  the  idea  of  scene  as  an  end  in  itself,  of  costume  as  an  end 
in  itself,  out  of  stage  management  of  any  of  these  things,  and 
never  lose  hold  on  your  determination  to  win  through  to  the 
secret — the  secret  which  lies  in  the  creation  of  another  beauty 
and  then  all  will  be  well." 

Pierre  Loving. 


12  PLAYS   OF  THE   LITTLE   THEATRE 


FOREWORD 

What  is  wanting  in  this  volume  the  reader  will  only  too 
soon  discover  for  himself.  I  do  not,  however,  wish  to  offer  a 
faltering  apology  for  the  incompleteness  of  the  book.  In  truth, 
it  needs  none.  Nevertheless,  a  brief  word  of  explanation  may 
not  be  amiss. 

The   duties  of  the  bibliographer  are  more  or  less  mc 
cal.      He    merely   collects    his    data    from    the    most    available 
sources   or   from    arcana    known   only   to    a    few,    arranges   his 
material   alphabetically  and   sends  his  copy  to   the   printer. 

The  present  volume  is  an  exception  to  the  general  practice. 
It  will  be  noted  that  the  bibliographer  has  broken  his  traces, 
forsaken  his  accustomed  field  and  intruded,  in  some  measure, 
upon  the  province  of  the  critic.  From  the  great  mass  of  plays 
accessible  in  English  I  have  sought  to  select  only  those  which 
I  hold  best  adapted  to  the  little  theatre  as  it  is  today  consti- 
tuted. On  the  whole,  they  are  plays  which  have  encountered 
a  certain  measure  of  success  or  that  I  feel  to  be  worthy  of 
production.  Rigid  care  has  been  taken  to  exclude  such  dra- 
matic pieces  which  are  fittingly  described  as  "side-splitting 
farces."  The  latter  contribute  nothing  to  the  art  theatre. 
Box  and  Cox,  I  doubt  not,  may  be  excruciatingly  funny,  but 
few  would  care  to  hear  that  Sam  Hume,  for  instance,  was 
about  to  produce  it.  Not  that  genuine  laughter  hasn't  its 
place  in  the  modern  theatre ;  but  we  cannot  laugh  today  at 
the  archaic  drolleries  of  yesterday.  We  cannot  abandon  our- 
selves to  papier-mache  characterization  in  the  theatre.  And 
this  is  what  the  art  theatre  has  accomplished  in  its  brief  stay 
with  us. 

The  plays  that  have  met  with  success  in  recognized  little 
theatres  are  marked  with  an  asterisk.  Titles  and  authors 
mean  so  little  that  I  have  used  this  method  for  the  guidance 
of  the  questing  reader   and  director.
